What is a DVR file?
DVR files are associated with digital video recorders, commonly used to record TV shows, surveillance footage, or live events. These files can vary in encoding depending on the DVR manufacturer.
DVR video may be stored in proprietary formats, requiring specific software for playback or conversion. They are mostly used in security and broadcasting systems.
How to open DVR files
DVR files can be opened using the software that created them, such as DVR viewer tools, or general media players like VLC (if the codec is supported).

What is a AVI file?
AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a multimedia container format introduced by Microsoft. It can store both video and audio data in a single file and supports a variety of codecs.
Although an older format, AVI is still widely supported and used for video playback, editing, and sharing. However, its larger file sizes and limited support for newer features make it less efficient than modern formats.
How to open AVI files
AVI files are compatible with nearly all media players, including VLC, Windows Media Player, and QuickTime (with codecs). They are widely used in both editing and playback.
You can convert AVI to MP4 or MKV using AnyConv for improved compression and compatibility.
